This book by Acharya unleashes the power of R as a statistical data analytics and visualization tool and introduces the learners to several data mining algorithms and chart forms/visualizations. It has good emphasis on "asking the right questions".
We are in very exciting times! Statistical computing and high-scale data analysis tasks need a new category of computer language other than the procedural and object-oriented programming languages. The main objective of this category of language is to support various types of statistical analysis and data analysis tasks rather than developing new software. There are mounds of data available today which can be analyzed in different ways and can provide a wide range of useful insights for different operations in different industries. However, the problem was the lack of support, tools and techniques for data analysis for different purposes. R, a statistical and analytical language, has come to our rescue! To add to the benefits, it is an open source.
